    Ovation to Ovum.
    Retardation is not a requirement in CE. Plain Craziness will do.
    The nearest to explosives I have been to was in doing a few trials for explosive forming of some aluminium components. Interesting while it lasted.
    Welcome to CE. I am sure that you will rock the place.

    Thanks for that, I feel relaxed now. Sorry but my knowledge is more about de-forming of anything. Bad? well somebody has to do it.
    Now keeping busy tutoring students when they need it and trying to satisfy my engineering interests.
